SharePoint Approval

Question

I need to add sharepoint approval to a list... and I was hoping to use the default approval process... but... I need to run some code once an item is approved. Do I have to then use VS to create a custom workflow?

I need to run some code that currently runs in an event reciever. I need to move the code to another function (as we are moving the processing out of event reciever code and now based on item approval). This code would execute after the item is approved and can be hosted as a service or .net code.

Answer 1

It would depend on the type of work you need to do to the item. Could you be more specific? There may be a way to do it OOB...

Answer 2

Full commented source to a state-machine based approval workflow comes with the MOSS SDK 1.5 in the samples directory.
